That is in line with the reported fuel mileage loss from running Biodiesel. Less BTU per gallon of fuel less drive energy. Especially if you don;t have your truck tuned for the Bio diesel.
What turbo were you running when you had the non gated turbo, must have been a little large? Were you running it on the truck you have now? Drive pressure numbers would be nice if they were available, I have not seen any hard numbers posted yet.
Not sure how you would tune for something like that. With a larger plunger DS4 you run into all kinds of reliability problems, and the test stands are set up to expect a certain set of numbers at certain rpms. You have to have a Stanadyne shop willing to work with you on the electronic pump. The...
You know the most reliable is not having any waste gate :agreed::hihi: I had to say that. Is there a exhaust back pressure number that correlates with the spring opening pressure?
Don't fall into the kindergarten antics, just state what you have or want to and let it be. There is always someone with an opposite opinion. WELCOME to the site. I am interested as I have a very strongly modified DS pump and it has been a challenge to overcome some of the inherent issues. But...
Balancing is a must, find a good shop that can do it and give you the numbers they settle at. Must be between one and four moments, the closer to zero the better the efficiency at higher rpm. If you want a kit I have just the ticket, and it will be done in a few hours, you don't need to modify...
The A-team turbo is a solid dependable turbo that compliments our trucks and has been proven to stand the test of time. There is no mechanical waste gate to adjust or fail. I think War Wagon has pretty much showed what kind of fuel savings can be had with the A-team turbo. I also believe he has...
What you get with an A-team Turbo is a bullet proof put it on and forget it turbo that you can swap over in a few hours. The install is straight forward and simple no moving things around or rearranging the battery, no waste gate to fail or springs to adjust. The turbo is built to use and be...
SO I have been an owner since the beginning way back in 2007, My truck has about 40,000 on the turbo and it has saved me a lot of fuel dollars. I picked up 3 miles to the gallon on the highway originally and the towing capability was great. I towed 28,000 truck and trailer for a little over 1000...
Yes working on polishing the tune and will be sending one obd 1 tune to someone to try in their truck, so I get some feedback. Lots of tables to adjust and it is amazing what you can customize for your vehicle. I will get the thread on emulating started. If someone wants to do emulation with...
